An embodied Journey into the Unseen ~ Medicine Dance Sanctuary

What might you discover when you stop looking outward and begin to feel your way within?

Inspired by the ancient traditions of Halloween and Day of the Dead, SHADOW is an invitation to journey inward, honour the unseen and explore the parts of ourselves we have hidden, suppressed or left unexplored.. ✨

Shadow work is the art of bringing the unconscious into awareness, meeting ourselves with honesty, compassion and courage and welcoming home the parts of us we have learned to hide. Through this process, darkness becomes fertile ground for insight, integration and transformation.

As October draws to a close, we enter this season rich with symbolism - it can be a time to honour those who have passed, reflect on the cycles of life, death and renewal and remember the deeper mysteries often lost beneath the commercialism of modern Halloween. Through sound, ritual and embodied movement, we create space to explore what lies beneath the surface.

Our journey includes:

* Shamanic drum sound journey

* Guided meditation

* Ceremonia Cacao

* Blindfolded somatic movement

* Medicine Dance Journey

* Integration circle

Journeying in darkness, we soften our reliance on outward sight and turn inward, listening to the wisdom of the body, emotions and intuition. Then as the blindfolds come off, we carry this awareness into free-form dance, allowing the body to express what words cannot.

We close in sacred circle, making space to reflect, integrate and honour whatever has emerged.

This gathering is for Women drawn to ritual, inner exploration, embodied movement/dance and authentic connection.

Enter the darkness not to lose yourself, but to reclaim the parts of yourself you have forgotten.

Medicine Dance Sanctuary - is a Women's space for ritual, remembrance, embodied movement and the return to our own aliveness.

~ TESTIMONIALS

"The world desperately needs this return to the feminine, an energy that resonates with the Earth's natural intelligence; her elements, rhythms + cycles. When Women reclaim feminine knowledge, wisdom and power, we are even more connected with our choices and our sovereignty. We become the way showers for the Earth's healing and awakening"

Marnie Devi ~ Medicine Dance Sanctuary founder.

"The entire experience is absolute medicine for our body, heart + soul !"

“That was, honestly one of my most favourite dance journeys ever! they are always good, but that was exceptionally potent and something very magical definitely happened in there.. The cacao ceremony was beautiful and the new moon ritual powerful, it really connected us all. I loved the intimacy, safety and connectedness of the group. The after effects left me feeling naturally high, happy and healed. So grateful for you, holding such an integral, loving space with so much grace and confidence, just perfect, love it!” CC 7/8/24 "

Marnie holds a beautiful safe, welcoming space full of love and passion, I feel her devotion to Women's empowerment and the holding of the sacred feminine energy, she holds such a devotion and care to her craft to inspire Women to met more of themselves; to connect in, to feel, to move, to heal. I love the variety of embodiment practices, the inspiring intentions, the awesome music that ignites. Each time I feel healed, empowered and reconnected " Lia.

🌟 MARNIE DEVI HUDSON - dance, yoga, meditation, ritual, elemental embodiment, dance, personal transformation, conscious awakening, is my way of life! It was through the transformative and liberating nature of Ecstatic Dance, that I discovered an authentic, heart-centred awakening. In 2014, Marnie completed her teacher training with Malaika Darville to facilitate 5 ELEMENTS DANCE. Soon after Medicine Dance was born. Ever since, she has been holding Medicine Dance and her divine offerings on local dance floors and at private retreats.

ABOUT -

MEDICINE DANCE is a moving dynamic meditation, an ecstatic, somatic dance journey guided by the elements of nature, the elements in ourselves, the elements of life... and our interconnection with it ALL. Marnie will intuitively guide you, accompanied by an awesome musical soundscape along with the collective energy of the group, for a deeply felt, releasing, liberating, expansive, transformational, healing and connective dance experience.

Mid 2020, Marnie turned her practice to an ALL Women's Sanctuary. With select themes to explore and additional guest co-creators, the full experience offers an opening for a deeper, more wholesome experience. Medicine Dance Sanctuary creates an opportunity for a rich, deeply connected sisterhood to flourish.

Mid 2022, Marnie trained to learn the sacred alchemy of the medicinal magic of CACAO.

✨ C E R E M O N I A ✨ Cacao Alchemy brings in another element of awakening, transformation and healing to the Medicine Dance Sanctuary.

" The complete Medicine Dance Sanctuary - Elemental Embodiment, is a lived experience.. words can only try..

Imagine.. with breath, body and incredible beats, surrendering enough to completely trust in a DANCE journey and the medicine that is born is perfectly aligned for you..

Embodied Dance is like giving gesture to what is inward - allowing the body to feel and express what is occurring inside - and discovering what that is, through the movement.

In this way Dance is healing because just as riverbeds are shaped by the water that moves through them, we humans are shaped by the feelings and experiences that move through us.

As we begin to explore allowing feeling to move through us - we demystify feeling and restore it to the body’s natural ability to have sensation and to use this ability to fully experience life.

Our bodies are designed to feel and if we have lost touch with this embodied dancing is a profound way to restore this capacity.

It is a journey of arriving in the body and entering the stream of movement..

Elemental Embodiment is a way of Being connected and receiving all the medicine and wisdom of the elements and to deeply feel the body as a temple space for that life force energy to flow through. When we allow, feel, explore and embody it all in the fullness of dance movement we come into our true aliveness! " ~ Marnie Devi

It is my heart's calling + prayer that this practice of Medicine Dance, Cacao Ritual + Sister Circles becomes a blessing of powerful conscious medicine for the individual, the community + our Mother Earth, as a way to create a loving ripple effect in this often chaotic world that needs grounding, unwinding, authentic connection, healing and rebirthing so deeply.
